The present disclosure provides an annular anchor installing instrument and an annular anchor installing method, relating to the technical field of ocean engineering. The annular anchor installing instrument includes an installation tube, a pump body assembly, a lifting portion and an installation portion. One end of the installation tube is provided with a cover body, and the other end of the installation tube is configured to be an open end for cooperating with the top of the annular anchor. The pump body assembly is arranged on the cover body, and used to vacuum the interior of the installation tube. The lifting portion is arranged on the cover body, and used to connect with a hoist. The installation portions are removably arranged on the cover body, and used to connect with the hoist and the anchor chain of the annular anchor, respectively.

The present disclosure provides an annular anchor, a method for calculating antitorque bearing strength thereof and an installing and recycling assemble for the anchor, relating to the technical field of ocean engineering. The annular anchor includes an anchor body opened at its upper and lower ends, and a connection portion arranged on the outer side wall of said anchor body for connecting with parts to be moored. The annular anchor provided by the present disclosure omits the top cover as the structure prevailing in the traditional suction anchor, avoiding the drawback of installing the traditional suction anchor on the seabed, instead the annular anchor can be installed to a certain depth below the seabed. During the descent, there is no need to take into account the resistance caused by the top cover, so that the annular anchor can be installed simply and quickly.

A pile-driver assembly for driving a pile into the ground, preferably offshore, and a method of driving a pile into the ground using the pile-driver assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a casing defining a chamber, the chamber being configured to house a fluid. The assembly further includes a positioning element configured to position the casing at or on the pile, wherein at least a portion of the positioning element is positioned between the chamber and the pile. The assembly further includes actuating means, wherein actuation of the actuating means displaces the chamber relative to the positioning element, such that the chamber moves away from the pile, and wherein the actuating means is configured to release the chamber for displacement towards the pile such that a force is exerted by the chamber on the positioning member, to controllably drive the pile into the ground.

A method of fixing an offshore structure to a pre-piled foundation pile is provided. A tube is piled into the sea floor and the offshore structure includes a leg inserted into the foundation pile. Grout is applied to a first region between an end portion of the leg and the sea floor within the foundation pile. The grout is allowed to at least partially cure, and then grout is applied to a second region. The second region is an annular region between the leg and the foundation pile.

Disclosed is a support structure for an offshore wind power generator which is applicable to various seafloor terrains by increasing the number of seafloor penetration cylinders that are installed to be penetrated into and fixed to a seafloor ground and in which a vibration generation part and a seawater injection part assist the penetration of the seafloor penetration cylinders into the seafloor ground. The support structure for an offshore wind power generator includes: five seafloor penetration cylinders; covers provided above the five seafloor penetration cylinders, respectively; a drain part provided inside each of the covers; a seawater injection part provided in each of the five seafloor penetration cylinders to inject high-pressure seawater and align horizontal levels of the five seafloor penetration cylinders; and a supporting stand connected to the covers via connection parts.

A pile-driver assembly for driving a pile into the ground, preferably off-shore, and a method of driving a pile into the ground using the pile-driver assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a casing defining a chamber, the chamber being configured to house a fluid, the chamber comprising a channel extending at least partially therethrough. The assembly further includes a positioning element configured to position the casing at or on the pile, wherein at least a portion of the positioning element is positioned between the chamber and the pile, wherein the positioning element comprises a guide element, configured to extend at least partially through the channel of the chamber. The assembly further includes actuating means, wherein actuation of the actuating means displaces the chamber relative to the positioning element, such that the chamber moves away from the pile, and wherein the actuating means is configured to release the chamber for displacement towards the pile such that a force is exerted by the chamber on the positioning member, to controllably drive the pile into the ground.

A press-in reinforcement steel plate underwater swell prevention structure that prevents, in filling with a filler, swell of a press-in reinforcement steel plate pressed-in for reinforcement around an existing columnar structure part of which is built in water, includes: a pair of swell prevention members having a Z-shaped cross section and mounted to an upper part of the existing columnar structure above a water level at time of construction, a slit being formed between the swell prevention members; and a plurality of stiffeners having a T-shaped cross section and mounted to an inner surface of the press-in reinforcement steel plate, at least one of the stiffeners being inserted in the slit.

A marine foundation such as a jacket or a tripod foundation for a wind turbine comprises suction piles that are subjected, in service, to cyclical loading of compression phases and tension phases in alternation. Each pile has a one-way valve that opens and closes autonomously in response to pressure differentials between the internal chamber and the surrounding water. The valve opens during the compression phases to effect fluid communication between an internal chamber of the pile and surrounding water. Water is thereby ejected from within the chamber through the valve. Conversely, during the tension phases, the valve closes and water is admitted into the pile only through soil within a skirt of the pile. Thus, a unidirectional, generally upward flow of water is driven through the soil within the skirt during the compression and tension phases, maximising water flow friction and reducing the risk of liquefaction of the soil.

The present application relates to an immersed tube production system and production method, the production system comprising: a production line, including a rebar binding area, a rebar cage storage area, an immersed tube production area and an outfitting area; a first and a second steel sealing gate are disposed at two ends of the immersed tube production area; the immersed tube production area comprises multiple pouring areas; and the outfitting area is located on a water surface of an external water area; a rebar production area, including a rebar storage area, and a bottom, sidewall and roof rebar processing areas; the rebar production area is located at a side of the rebar binding area; and the rebar binding area is configured to bind the bottom, sidewall and roof rebars into rebar cages; and first hoisting equipment, configured to transport the rebars in the rebar production area.

A constructing method of an underwater concrete block structure, includes: a first concrete block fabrication step, a guide pole installation step, a first concrete block installation step, a second concrete block fabrication step, a second concrete block installation step, a drainage step, a guide pole removal step, and a concrete column formation step. A concrete column and a first concrete block is firmly coupled to each other via a column rebar assembly.
